Pets and your health

http://pets.webmd.com/ss/slideshow-pets-improve-your-health

Are pets are our closest friends; they offer companionship and a good protector. But they can also be helpful to your health. In an article I read in the link above I found 28 ways pets can improve your health. These ways have offered some good insight into owning a pet. They can help you live longer.
                Dogs aren’t the only one who can be helpful.   Owning a pet in general can help you in some way. When you stroke a pet it can help lower your blood pressure. Cats can help people recover from a stroke by giving them something to take care of that isn’t to need unlike a dog. Cats also can help prevent strokes, it is because of that calming effect a pet can have on a person. Having a cat around can also lower the chance of developing asthma in an infant.
Dogs can just do it all; they are our best tool to help people if they need help. They can act as a service do to those who need help to live alone. Taking your dog for a walk can raise you excise level and get you out of your isolation and into the world.   Having a dog or cat can also lower your rate of de3veloping allergies in a child.  We have also trained dogs to be able to tell when a diabetic needs sugar in their blood because of a drop in blood sugar level.
A dog can also be just a good therapist. When you have a dog in a therapy office it can help fight couples see how their fight affects people or animals around them. My aunt who is psychologists brings her dog to the office with her and children are more likely to open up to a dog than a grown up.
Dog and cats aren’t the only pets that can do help for the human health. Hoarse back riding is a good way to recover from a stroke, because it helps with balance and core strength.   Children with autism can work out problems by hoarse back riding it is a way to help open up to more senses.
Dogs and cats have also been helping us with cancer. They develop it to so we can study them to help understand how it works in humans. It is how we worked out prostate cancer and older men. This may be the way we find out how to completely get rid of cancer. Threw the dogs and cats we love so much.
